About Splunk

Splunk logo

Many of our member organisations have recognised the potential value of Splunk, an analytics platform which – among other use cases – helps you to get a clearer overview of your IT environment and identify security threats and vulnerabilities.

To make the most of Splunk in research and education, it needs to come at a price you can afford. So, to help you make the business case for the platform, we have worked with Splunk to offer significant savings on Splunk Enterprise licensing.

By offering cost-effective access to Splunk, we hope to make it easier for more organisations to benefit from its potential efficiencies – while using the power of the Jisc community to share knowledge, and discover and develop more use cases.

How does this benefit my organisation?

Better visibility over ‘big data’

With Splunk Enterprise, you can

  • Turn large amounts of machine data into useful insights that help you manage your organisation more efficiently
  • Improve visibility of your IT environment by highlighting security issues and allowing you to manage your IT estate efficiently
  • Analyse machine data across a wide range of business platforms throughout your organisation.

A cost-effective solution

In addition to fantastic savings on Splunk Enterprise licences for the education and research sector, we have access to Splunk training courses which cover Splunk fundamentals. (You can also buy credits for the recommended system and data administration courses.)

A pathway to implementation

To help you implement Splunk Enterprise, we can offer access to third-party professional services. This add-on service can help you to get up to speed with Splunk so that you can start making the most of it more quickly, delivering more value back into the organisation.

The power of the Jisc community

A strong community supporting Splunk already exists within the sector. There is both a highly-attended, Splunk-supported UK education user group and plenty of experienced specialists willing to assist with issues and develop new ideas, including Jisc’s own accredited team. Watch a recording from SplunkLive! London to hear how the University of Exeter is protecting research and investment with Splunk.
